Anyone know how much late 70s B Bodies weigh

Hey All:

Looking at a couple of later 70s Furies and such. Goofy 70s styling is growing on me, and well that’s about all the Mopar I can afford any more.

Anyone have an idea on weight on these cars? I would think the crash stuff would add a lot of extra.

Thanks,

Steve

72 Roadrunner rear bumper and underbumper valence panel

Hello All:

Want to convert my 72 satellite sedan to roadrunner/satellite hardtop rear bumper. Need a bumper, any bracketry you’re willing to part with and the valence under the bumper. Patina’d / imperfect etc are good or maybe better because it’ll match the rest of the car.

Let me know what you’ve got!

Hey All:

Need to get some u joints asap and don’t have access to the car at the moment. Is there any way to tell which u joints this car has? Its a 72 satellite sedan with a 904 and 318? If there’s one or two it could be I’ll just get both.

Thanks for any help!

I want the easiest small block headers to install in a 72 B Body…

Hey All:

Have a 318 72 Satellite custom.Needs exhaust system replaced, so why not headers?

Looking for recommendations. I’ve only done A bodies and race big block stuff on B Bodies. Are there headers out there that don’t require dismantling the steering linkage?

Thanks for any help!

8.25 to 8.75 brake swap?!?!

Hello

I have a 72 satellite sedan. I have obtained a complete 72 Charger 8.75 (brakes are there, but shot- would need completely rebuilt). The brakes on the 8.25 are new. I’ve been told that I can swap these brakes over complete onto the 8.75. Is that true?

Also someone told me that if I do that I’ll have to get custom length axes, but that he may have been confused about A bodies and small bolt patter vs. big bolt pattern brakes.

Thanks for any help!

Just bought a ’72 Satellite Sedan. Needs 8.75

Hey All:

Just bought a 72 Satellite four door. It has an 8.25, but I want to replace It with an 8.75. Anyone know which cars I can use for a donor without relocating the springs or perches? Am buying new wheels so if the axle ends move inward it doesn’t bug me!

Thanks!
